Which quad should I buy, '06 Grizzly or '06 yfz450? I like fast bikes but don't intend to race. I could use a utility around the house and possibly put a snow plow on it. A utility would also come in handy durring hunting season. I just can't decide. HELP!

 

If you are unable to afford two new ones.. , and you cannot decide on Sport or Utility, then I suggest you buy used, one of each.... Have the best of both worlds...

But based on what you said, it sounds like you would be better served with a Utility quad...

 

I agree, go with the ute. My cousin was having trouble with the same decision trying to pick between a suzuki z400 or eiger, he went with the ute and he's been happy with his choice.

 

Several years ago, I was trying to make the same decision.

I went with the Wolverine, classified then as a Sport/Utility. It's definitely not a racer, but with a few easy mods, has a nice feel on the trail. It will keep up with any other utility on the trails and will go places a Sport can not.

The Grizz does not handle like a Sport or Sport/Utility, but can go just about anywhere.

If you are going to be doing mostly house work, hunting, and other trail riding, I recommend the Grizz or possibly a Sport/Util.

Since going with the Sport/Util, I have never wished I had gone with the Sport.

 

Hunting and plowing snow? That would call for a utility how ever, I would wait till Yamaha releases their 07' line-up because they will prolly be adding EFI onto some of their utility quads this yr.

 

just get an outty 800, will be almost as quick as any sport, and still have the utuility aspect of it

 

you can have fun on the grizzly, but i would go for the yfz, its going to be alot more fun

 

i know its a tuff decision i have a bruin and a warrior and im getting another one next spring been looking and looking and cant decide i like them both the warrior is just plain a blast to ride love it but not practical for hunting etc, i have to sell one to offset the price of the new one and its tuff, the bruin is great for its purpose for work hunting putting around etc, i think i will get a new ute until i take the warrior out then its man i need a new sport quad then i get practical and figure a new ute would be practical for everything until i take the warrior out, good luck man im glad i got a year to figure it out.
